Alliances: A New Era of Team Play in MARVEL SNAP!

Our most anticipated feature for MARVEL SNAP is finally here! Both heroes and villains are stronger in numbers, which is why we’ve brought you Alliances. Alliances are here to enhance the social experience, allowing players to create or join communities within the game while working together to complete Bounties and earn rewards. Team up, strategize, chat with friends (new and old, all while earning rewards together.

WHAT ARE ALLIANCES?

Alliances is a new feature designed to help you and your friends connect. It provides a platform for players to strategize, collaborate, and grow together.

Team Up and Strategize: Form or join an Alliance to collaborate with fellow members. Share strategies, discuss tactics, and grow stronger together.
Complete Bounties: Work together to complete Alliance-specific Bounties. These tasks will challenge your team and offer exciting rewards.
Alliance Chat: Communicate seamlessly with other members through the in-game chat feature. Share tips, celebrate victories, and plan your next move.
Earn Rewards: Participate in Alliance activities to earn exclusive rewards. The more active and strategic your Alliance, the greater the rewards you can unlock.

ALLIANCE, ASSEMBLE!

Joining an Alliance

To join an Alliance, players first need to complete the Recruit Season Pass. After that, they can search for Alliances by ID, tag, or name, and use filters to find the right fit based on criteria like minimum Collection Level, highest rank achieved, language, and privacy settings. Players can also view an initial list of recommended Alliances based on their skill level.

Creating an Alliance

For those who prefer to create their own community, the Alliance Creation tab offers customization options including:

Emblem: Choose a unique icon.
Theme: Set the background for your Alliance screen.
Tag: Create a tag visible before player names.
Name: Name your Alliance.
Description: Write a short description for potential recruits.
Requirements: Set minimum Collection Level and Rank.
Privacy: Decide if applications need approval or are auto-accepted.
Language: Select the primary language.
Search Labels: Use labels to improve visibility in search results.

NEW RECRUITS

Now that you’re in, you’ll want to organize. Leadership is key in any organization and Alliances are no different.

Alliance Management

Leaders and Officers have different levels of access and responsibilities:

Leaders can manage descriptions, joining requirements, emblems, themes, chat settings, promotions, demotions, and more.
Officers can kick users, manage new applicants, and report users.
Members can report users and interact in the chat.

Alliance Chat and Feed

The Alliance window features a chat and feed system where members can interact and stay updated on activities. The feed will automatically share major player milestones like winning an 8-cube game, beating an Infinite Conquest, Hitting Infinite Rank, or when players join/leave. Leaders can also post announcements to ensure the entire Alliance is on the same page.

TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK

One of the main ways players will interact with Alliances is through bounties. Unlike the weekly missions, players will choose from a list of available Bounties that have various rarities and point values. Players can only select up to three Bounties at a time, but if they see a new Bounty that they would rather do, they will be able to swap up to 3 bounties a week. Completing these Bounties earns points for both personal and Alliance-wide rewards. Points contribute to progress bars for individual and group rewards, and an Alliance Leaderboard tracks top contributors weekly.

As players complete Bounties and earn points for rewards, those points will also be used to show Alliance members who have the most points collected during that week. This board resets alongside the Bounty rewards at the end of a week.

JUST THE BEGINNING

We have BIG dreams for Alliances and are committed to expanding this feature over time. The next step on our roadmap is Alliance Competitions. These competitions will pit Alliances against each other in thrilling battles for supremacy and even more rewards!

Alliances is a feature designed for YOU, our dedicated players. We will be releasing new features in phases and actively seeking your feedback to shape its future development. Let us know what you think and how we can make Alliances even better.

Mark your calendars and prepare to experience a new level of teamwork in MARVEL SNAP. We can’t wait to see the incredible Alliances you will create and the epic adventures that await!

Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, thank you for being part of the MARVEL SNAP community!
